My heartfelt condolence to Dan, Pete, Rhonda, Michelle, grandchildren and to all the Vignola family. Although no words alone can ease the loss you bear, know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. Over the last forty-seven years John was my employer, mentor and friend. John will always be remembered for his hard work, ingenuity and friendship. We will miss his companionship, though he will always be with us in memories shared.
